I love toile and want to use pink toile in my pink bedroom. I'm afraid I'm a fabric collector and hoarder... I never have to worry about going to the store in the winter as I have PLENTY at my house to keep me busy for the rest of my life.. although I still love to go to the fabric shops, especially the small local ones, and ooh and aahh over all the new stuff. When I want to find a big piece though, for curtains, etc., then I usually do have to make a fabric shop run! I am lucky to have my own bedroom as my craftroom and it is wall to wall shelves and fabric and paper supplies.. but I love it.

Once the weather is cold, I spend a lot of time out there. I've been stocking up on fabric . . . driving on icy roads is something I don't have to do, now that I'm retired . . . so having supplies ready for sewing is a sweet blessing.

I haven't painted too much furniture.. just small pieces using spray paint.. but would love to tackle something larger. It looks just darling in your craft space.. and so cozy there... just waiting for you to come once the weather starts acting up and showing signs of winter. Love the blues and contact paper, and stencils!

I love getting visitors and wish there was a way to actually invite you to sit on the porch and enjoy a lemonade as we visit. Thank you for your sweet words . . . I do like finding old thrown out pieces at yard sales and giving them new life. Although; I do enjoy the vintage farm and cottage look, when it comes to my Art Barn I enjoy adding lots of color and trying a mixed up happy go lucky decor. Thank you again for stopping by and please know that my welcome-mat is always out :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-32786692671528385992016-08-25T16:03:58.578-07:002016-08-25T16:03:58.578-07:00That table is a real beauty ♥
